A live, in-person show in a San Pedro theater! This is a great way to head back to “normal.” See details below, or go to the event page on the Grand Vision website. Audience will be limited to 40 people, distanced, of course. But, tables up front are available at $100 flat and can accommodate up to four people. I cannot wait! This show is part of the Roots & Rambles series, sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts.
I’m so excited that I’ll be able to play the beautiful grand piano there, in addition to the couple of guitars that I’ll bring, while I share a crop of unreleased songs and some old favorites. We’ll also be filming this show, so it’s going to be a really special night! [Read more here]

Notes:This is a IN-PERSON Live Concert! Tickets are limited.
Grand Annex Roots & Rambles series features Los Angeles-based roots rock musicians who shine a light on the cultural influences of Americana.
The third Roots & Rambles concert features the prolific Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter, Jason Luckett. His six albums and three independent EPs move combine folk with jazz, rock and world influences – in a personal style Jason calls groovy acoustic soul. “A tasty brew of pop, soul, and folk that’s both relaxed and infectiously danceable.”- Victory Review
Let’s create songs together. In 45 minutes, we’ll work together to find descriptive and emotional language that will convey a story or an idea. We’ll look at tricks of rhyme and expectations to add depth and create interest. We’ll look at how we can model our song on existing material and create something entirely new. This is part of the Roots and Rambles series for the Grand Vision Foundation and the Grand Annex. See details below and look here for info on the live show on June 18.
